Answer 1 :
Yes, of course you will. You may be disadvantaged compared to others in that field since you've worked in accountancy, and would most likely have no experience in civil engineering. It would be possible to get into it, but don't expect to get it at an equal level as you were with accountancy, and don't expect to be treated as well as others who have just graduated and have had relevant experience in the field.
Answer 2 :
you will definitely be qualified for both jobs but like the previous respondent said, you will be disadvantaged in the one in which you have minimal experience. what i will do in your case is seek accountancy work in an engineering company where both skills can come into play.. that's what i am looking to do.. i am doing my professional accounting exams and studying towards a degree in IT at the same time.
